A lovely visit with great views!

The staff was able to get us into our room extra early and the view was amazing - two lighthouses and the ocean! The lighthouses and the beach were a very easy walk from the inn. They were able to give us a breakfast to go when we had to leave before the breakfast was served. The room was lovely - wood finishes - and the bathroom was really great. The staff was friendly and helpful. A lovely visit.

The Lighthouse is excellent for a one-night stay-over before or after a Keflavik flight. It is about 14 minutes by car to the airport. It is in a very quiet area at the end of the Gardur peninsula. If the hotel restaurant is fully booked, as it was when we stayed, there is another within walking distance (wild and windy weather notwithstanding) - the Rostin. Unfortunately, it closes at 8 so if you're arriving later be sure to have a hotel restaurant reservation. There is nothing else for miles.
